Ogyrs: An Actually Useful Book by Simon Bellbottoms
If you are insane enough to enter Toughwood, or brave enough, then here are some things it is imperative you should know when encountering that most horrid of monsters, the Ogyr.
These brutes are big and strong because they eat their Greens. They eat the Browns too. And the Smiths. And the rest of the village.
The primary weapons of Ogyrs are the very primitive things they call 'A big Stick of wood'. So basically, a tree.
They smash it down, and you really shouldn't try to block it, unless you are looking to lose some height from your personage.
Ogyr's also like to be sporting, and toss a big rock in the air to smash at you with their club.
Scholars believe they learned this from an ancient sport called Clubbing.
Lastly, Ogyr's love dogs. Big dogs. They want to think they are the big boys of the estate, and so having dangerous hounds, like Barghests, at their command fulfils that role. Listen for the whistle, which is a basic command that means "Rip em up".
Absolute t**** the lot of them.
